Check out my poem on the blog Seven Days Seven Answers: http://7days7answers.blogspot.com/2010/02/dreaming-of-ex.html .
Synesthesia means a sensation produced in one modality when a stimulus is applied to another modality, as when the hearing of a certain sound induces the visualization of a certain color.
Dreams can be hard to describe. You are immersed in a very real world behind your lids and then BAM!, out you roll into life. I have always struggled with describing the colors and sounds and most importantly, feelings of my dreams. Synesthia - taking one sense like smell, sight, touch, sound, and replacing it with another - is an interesting writing exercise.
On a side note, last night I had my recurring girl power, kick ass dream, wherein I beat someone up. This time it was an evil old lady who was trying to boil me and my friends alive in a prison hot tub. I organized everyone and we swarmed her control tower. She did not survive. I surmise this dream came about because my body tends to overheat while sleeping these days.
